Manchester United have reportedly agreed personal terms with Colombian international striker Radamel Falcao, paving way for the forward to make his loan switch to the Old Trafford club permanent in the near future, as reported by the Daily Express.

The Manchester side signed the former Atletico Madrid hit man in a surprise deadline day deal, with the player joining the club on a season long loan.

However, there was a clause written into his deal which allowed the club to make the move permanent for £43.5 million.

Reports are now suggesting that the player and the club have agreed terms over a £250,000 a week salary, meaning that they just need to pay the set fee for the player to become a permanent acquisition.

This move is therefore set to be confirmed, with Man Utd to pay AS Monaco the huge sum to secure the deal.

Falcao has not yet scored in his three games for Man Utd.

Manchester United have confirmed their starting line up for their game against Queens Park Rangers at Old Trafford, with the game being broadcast live on Sky Sports at 4pm today.

The Old Trafford club are looking for their first win of the new season, having failed to turn early optimism into results under Louis van Gaal.

Opening day saw them fall to a 2-1 loss against Swansea City, who were undefeated in the league until they faced Chelsea yesterday.

They then faced Sunderland, who they drew with away from home. Their last Premier League match was a goalless draw against Burnley, when record breaking signing Angel Di Maria made his debut for the side after his transfer from Real Madrid.

Man Utd have also faced a significant humbling in the League Cup, when their inexperienced line up lost 4-0 to League Two side MK Dons, with Arsenal loanee Benik Afobe scoring a brace.

Van Gaal’s selection is as follows:

#MUFC – De Gea, Rafael, Evans, Rojo, Blackett, Blind, Herrera, Mata, Di Maria, Rooney, van Persie.
